All you guys who ask about the sensor, just cut the circular part of that meets the box off then get some memory tubing and any kind of filter you want and connect them. I personally just disconnected the stock tube from the intake manifold and cut a hole for the sensor and it doesnt look great but it works for now till sonething good comes out. I got everything I need from Autozone cause I work there and they actually have decent stuff. Im workin on pics of mine right now but Im barely able to use the internet and post on here so........

it doesnt look like the sensor is plugged in, but it might be at the base
that intake is garbage, as it pulls in hot air from the engine bay, then heats it up as the piping runs around the engine

get a drop in filter and you will be much happier

Whatever happened to bypass valves that they use to make for CAI's that you could put on the intake just in case water did get sucked up...the valve would catch the water before it got to the engine?
